Free Market Thanksgiving
If I could buy Thanksgiving, I would buy my mom's thanksgiving. Best. Also, I have the best family and fiance, I'm thankful for them.

I'm committed to...
Dear bloggees,
This semester, I have decided to make some super commitments, and I'm publishing them to the world to keep me accountable to them. Hokay:
1. I am committed to my friendships at home. I will call and keep those connections and make it clear I care about those people.
2. I am committed to calling my parents at least every other day to let them know everything is going well.
3. I am committed to daily Bible and prayer time in the mornings for 30 minutes. This is always something I've been "committed" to, but no excuses this time, not for sleep, not for work, not for food. For man lives on the Word that comes from God. (Matt. 4:4)
4. I am committed to investing in my life here. I want to be a more active member of my church, of this Bloomie community, and of graduate school. I will take the focus off of myself and think about others.
5. I am committed to fun! I will take time off from work. I will sleep. I will pursue relationships with friends and people in my cohort. I will do the things I have always loved to do.
Also, I think I'm going to try a bit more things from the realm of cooking. I am hopeful enjoying my life will help me thrive a bit more in graduate school.
Lastly, poached my first egg today. I think I liked it, but I was so nervous the entire time I was making it, so perhaps I'll like it more next time.
Committing,
MJ

(Right, this picture isn't one of the Bible, but I didn't want to risk being too cheesy, so and I like this picture. Okay)

Are you voting for Sarah Palin in 2012?
Some one asked me this earlier this week, thanks to a facebook picture of me wearing a Texas Republican t-shirt (Ahem, Anne...). It wasn't in a bad way, but still, ack, no, not voting for Sarah Palin. This video is just an SNL joke, but it COULD be real. I shiver at the thought!
Palin: 2012????
Well, I should be honest, the shiver is due largely to the fact that it's cold, and we're supposed to get the first snow tonight! It's not supposed to stick, but brrrrrr! Even though the shiver is weather related, I wouldn't vote for Sarah Palin in hot weather either. Just clarifying. If you're confused, please refer to my note about Rush Limbaugh.
Also, Russell said that I was on Facebook too much and so he went on and changed my password. Now I can't get on, but it's okay, I'll just blog! That'll show him! Silly man, thinking he can hold me back, my femininity will not be contained! Also, I'm totally kidding about Russell being silly, I asked him to change it for me. I wonder what the new password is... Also, I wonder if my friends that used to get on my account for various reasons will try to log on and then think, "She changed her password and didn't tell me??? Ugh." Probs not.
The Zambranos are at < 2 daughters this Thanksgiving. I am tres sad. I should be in Texas :/
Well, off to do all the writing I stayed here to do!
